YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan.
23, 2006--Vettro,
a leading provider of

in on-demand CRM, today

salesforce.com AppExchange
applications. Vettro
RainMaker 360 deploys
wirelessly in a matter
of minutes and enables
users in the field to
fully interact with multiple
enterprise data sources,
including Salesforce.
The
new service allows mobile
users to work the way they
think with one-click access
to critical business information
in real-time, coupled with
bi-directional sync of
all data created, edited
and managed on the fly
using handheld device such
as BlackBerry(R), Palm
Treo, Windows Mobile devices
and cell phones. Once deployed,
RainMaker 360 converges
enterprise data residing
both in and out of Salesforce
directly onto the mobile
device, removing communication
bottlenecks and ensuring
the most accurate CRM information
is flowing through the
entire organization.
Vettro
RainMaker 360 lets users
fully leverage the power
of their company's SFA
system, such as Salesforce,
through mobile devices,
allowing companies to capture
seven times more information
in their SFA database.
As the most effective tool
of a company's sales team,
any handheld device powered
by Vettro RainMaker 360
connects both front- and
back-end IT investments,
forming one virtual CRM
database for complete access
to sales information.
The
service also fully supports
AppExchange, salesforce.com's
newly launched on-demand
application platform, which
allows for any application
that the end-user subscribes
to via AppExchange to be
automatically available
on Vettro RainMaker 360.
"The
intent behind Vettro RainMaker
360 was to arm mobile users
with a full view of their
customer relationships,
regardless of which enterprise
data source the information
resides in," said Joe Rymsza,
president and CEO of Vettro. "Full
wireless support of all
and any AppExchange applications
is an exciting milestone
and testament to the value
of Vettro RainMaker's adherence
to its 100 percent on-demand
deployment and automatic
detection of Salesforce
customizations."

of all sizes, including
